An analysis of the U.S. prison system through real-life stories, and a look at the complex work of community-based social justice projects. Through the stories of prisoners and their families, including her own family’s experiences, Maya Schenwar shows how the institution that locks up 2.3 million Americans and decimates poor communities of color is shredding the ties that, if nurtured, could foster real collective safety. As she vividly depicts here, incarceration takes away the very things that might enable people to build better lives. But looking toward a future beyond imprisonment, Schenwar profiles community-based initiatives that successfully deal with problems—both individual harm and larger social wrongs—through connection rather than isolation, moving toward a safer, freer future for all of us. “Maya Schenwar’s stories about prisoners, their families (including her own), and the thoroughly broken punishment system are rescued from any pessimism such narratives might inspire by the author’s brilliant juxtaposition of abolitionist imaginaries and radical political practices.” —Angela Y. Davis, author of Are Prisons Obsolete? “Locked Down, Locked Out paints a searing portrait of the real-life human toll of mass incarceration, both on prisoners and on their families, and—equally compellingly—provides hope that collectively we can create a more humane world freed of prisons. Read this deeply personal and political call to end the shameful inhumanity of our prison nation.” —Dorothy Roberts, author of Shattered Bonds and Killing the Black Body “This book has the power to transform hearts and minds, opening us to new ways of imagining what justice can mean for individuals, families, communities, and our nation as a whole. Maya Schenwar’s personal, openhearted sharing of her own family’s story, together with many other stories and real-world experiments with transformative justice, makes this book compelling, highly persuasive, and difficult to put down. I turned the last page feeling nothing less than inspired.” —Michelle Alexander, author of The New Jim Crow

The offender is still a human being, a candidate for rehabilitation, restoration and adequate reintegration into the society as a contributing member. With 5% of the world's population and 25% of the world's incarcerated population, the United States incarcerates more of its citizens than any country in the world. The implications of mass incarceration in the United States are reflected in social marginalization for individuals with conviction records, economic impoverishment, political disenfranchisement and HIV/AIDS in U.S. prisons. According to the 2008 report of the Pew Charity Trust, there are now more than 1 in 100 Americans behind bars with Hispanics and Blacks consisting of more than 65% of the U.S. prison population. Locked Up and Locked Down: Multitude Lingers in Limbo: Revised Edition comes with new chapters, latest research and Solutions for strategic solution development and intervention in the high rates of incarceration and recidivism in U.S. prisons.

Donald Horne famously called Australia &‘ the lucky country' . So how did we become the locked-up country and how might the future look different? Australia has changed enormously since Horne' s 1960s, but its response to the COVID-19 pandemic demonstrates the enduring truth of his thesis that our &‘ luck' was undeserved and wouldn' t last. By closing its borders and imposing a nationally coordinated lockdown, Australia unexpectedly eliminated COVID-19 in 2020, achieving one of the world' s lowest excess mortality rates. But as governments proceeded to bungle key planks of the pandemic response, by mid-2021, Australia was &‘ locked up' &– closed off to the world and fragmented along state and territory borders, with its major cities enduring repeated and extended lockdowns. It soon became clear that Australia' s regulatory state had let us down. But these failures were not inevitable, and we can manage future crises more successfully. In The Locked-up Country, political experts Tom Chodor and Shahar Hameiri identify the source of Australia' s recent challenges and suggest a better way forward.

Regina Jackson, attractive single mom and rising curator of a newly formed arts foundation is in love with her boss, Dr. Dennis Dickerson. Dennis is elusive, at best, and totally by accident, Regina finds herself in a relationship with an incarcerated man, Ray Boden. Dennis makes trips to the prison, seemingly on business, but Regina later finds out that he is dealing drugs in the prison and is in way over his head. Ray is trying to stop the drug trade in Cell block C, while Shaka – Ray’s arch enemy – is trying to get rich by selling cocaine to the other inmates. Ray tries to solicit Regina’s help and they fall in love. In the meantime, Dennis justifies his illegal actions. He is using the money to build his museum and a reputation for himself. On a trip to the prison, Shaka tries to kill him and steals his identity. Shaka succeeds in escaping and goes to the museum to score big money and kill the object of everyone’s affection – Regina. Dennis arrives just in time to save her. Shaka is apprehended and returned to prison. Regina realizes that she truly loves Dennis and her locked down relationship must end. However, her passion for Ray won’t die. Regina agrees to come to the prison to say goodbye. When she arrives, Ray has ‘disappeared’ but she discovers her long lost father who has been incarcerated for over 25 years. Throughout the novel, Regina meets nine women who are in locked down relationships. All of these women share their stories with her which effect the outcome of Regina’s love affair. She realizes that she, in many ways, has been locked down in love. It took the love of a convict to set her free.

My superpower? I can't die. You can imagine how much it hurts when they test that out... Phoebe Atkinson has always felt different, but in the typical angsty way most teenagers do. She had no idea just how different until that fateful day she died--and then came back to life. It appears that sort of thing is frowned upon because Phoebe awakens to find herself locked up in Leavenworth, a notorious prison that now holds teens with supernatural abilities. Behind bars, some are welcoming and others are... not. One group in particular seems determined to make the lives of Phoebe and her new friends as miserable as possible. Although Phoebe's life before being imprisoned was far from perfect, she wants it back. And she will... if they don't find a way to kill her first. Regardless, she's no longer going to stand by and be the rule-follower she's always been. Look where that got her. Lock Down is the first book in a young adult urban fantasy trilogy that's full of interesting characters and more than a few villains. The trilogy is complete, so scroll up to one-click your copy today!
